Frequently Asked Questions
How does a biweekly mortgage work?
With biweekly payments, you pay half your monthly mortgage every two weeks. Since there are 52 weeks in a year, you make 26 half-payments (equivalent to 13 full monthly payments). That extra payment goes directly to principal, reducing your loan term and total interest.
How much can I save with biweekly payments?
On a $300,000 30-year mortgage at 6.5%, biweekly payments can save approximately $70,000+ in interest and pay off your loan about 4-5 years early. The exact savings depend on your loan amount, rate, and term.
Do all lenders offer biweekly payment plans?
Not all lenders formally offer biweekly plans. Some charge setup fees. You can achieve the same result by making one extra monthly payment per year or adding 1/12 of your monthly payment to each monthly check.
